Testing the effects of heterozygosity on growth rate plasticity in the seaweed Gracilaria chilensis (Rhodophyta)
(Wiley, 2018-06)
Heterozygosity has been positively associated with fitness and population survival. However, the relationship between heterozygosity and adaptive phenotypic plasticity (i.e., plasticity which results in fitness homeostasis ...
Independent genetic control of maize (Zea Mays L.) kernel weight determination and its phenotypic plasticity.
(Oxford University Press, 2014-06)
Maize kernel weight (KW) is associated with the duration of the grain-filling period (GFD) and the rate of kernel biomass accumulation (KGR). It is also related to the dynamics of water and hence is physiologically linked ...
Environmental heterogeneity leads to higher plasticity in dry-edge populations of a semi-arid Chilean shrub: insights into climate change responses
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)
Interannual variability in climatic conditions should be taken into account in climate change studies in semi-arid ecosystems. It may determine differentiation in phenotypic plasticity among populations, with populations ...
Colonisation and growth strategies in two Codium species (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta) with different thallus forms
(Allen Press Publishing Services, 2014)
In clonal macroalgae, evidence of guerrilla and phalanx growth strategies has been related to a differential response due to a heterogeneous habitat. However, some species of the green algal genus Codium may exhibit different ...
Growth potential limits drought morphological plasticity in seedlings from six Eucalyptus provenances
(Oxford University Press, 2015-06)
Water stress modifies plant above- vs belowground biomass allocation, i.e., morphological plasticity. It is known that all species and genotypes reduce their growth rate in response to stress, but in the case of water ...
Morphological and physiological plasticity in seedlings of Araucaria angustifolia and Cabralea canjerana is related to plant establishment performance in the rainforest
(Elsevier, 2020)
High phenotypic plasticity is an important characteristic that should have a tree species that is going to be used to restore degraded rainforests, as those are stressful and changing environments. Quantifying phenotypic ...
Growth analysis in the potato crop under different irrigation levels
(Empresa Brasil Pesq Agropec, 2000-05-01)
An experiment was carried out at Fazenda Sao Manoel, pertaining to the Faculdade de Ciencias Agronamicas of the Universidade Estadual Paulista, Sao Manuel, SP, Brazil, to evaluate irrigation levels in the potato (Solanum ...
